Hi all,
I had this 110 down as being an ex Alan motor? Answers on a post card please

Andrew, I think Scandretts may have been an early version of Alte express, I think their yard was in Risca. Tony Transcon will know more.
Neil.

Hi Neil,
I understand where you are coming from mate,a couple of welsh firms have been in the game for years,but have had more name changes than the electoral register

Proper haulage yards always had a big puddle in them!..thats Haulage, not Logistics!!!
